From: Xiaoli Feng <xifeng@xxxxxxxxxx> After upstream linux patches(77573fa310d, 88149082bb8), if FS_XFLAG_DAX is set, DONTCACHE is also set. So S_DAX on the file should be active immediately once FS_XFLAG_DAX is set. --- tests/generic/608 | 38 +++++++++++--------------------------- 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+), 27 deletions(-) diff --git a/tests/generic/608 b/tests/generic/608 index dd89d91c..92f368e0 100755 --- a/tests/generic/608 +++ b/tests/generic/608 @@ -6,7 +6,7 @@ # Change FS_XFLAG_DAX on an existing file and check if S_DAX on # the file can take effect immediately by the following steps: # 1) Stop all applications which are using the file. -# 2) Do drop_caches or umount & mount cycle. +# 2) DONTCACHE is set. seq=`basename $0` seqres=$RESULT_DIR/$seq @@ -36,7 +36,7 @@ _require_dax_iflag _require_xfs_io_command "lsattr" "-v" _require_xfs_io_command "statx" "-r" -test_drop_caches() +test_caches() { local t_file=$SCRATCH_MNT/testfile @@ -51,56 +51,40 @@ test_drop_caches() _check_xflag $t_file 1 _check_s_dax $t_file 0 - # One application is using test file and check if S_DAX on - # the file doesn't take effect immediately by drop_caches - echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches - _check_s_dax $t_file 0 - exec 3<&- # No application is using test file and check if S_DAX on # the file takes effect immediately by drop_caches - echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches _check_s_dax $t_file 1 } -test_cycle_mount() +test_nocache() { - local option=$1 - local t_dir=$SCRATCH_MNT/testdir - local t_file=$t_dir/testfile + local t_file=$SCRATCH_MNT/testnocache - mkdir -p $t_dir - $XFS_IO_PROG -c 'chattr +x' $t_dir rm -f $t_file touch $t_file + _check_xflag $t_file 0 + _check_s_dax $t_file 0 + + $XFS_IO_PROG -c 'chattr +x' $t_file _check_xflag $t_file 1 _check_s_dax $t_file 1 - exec 3< $t_file - $XFS_IO_PROG -c 'chattr -x' $t_file _check_xflag $t_file 0 - _check_s_dax $t_file 1 - - exec 3<&- - - # No application is using test file and check if S_DAX on - # the file takes effect immediately by umount & mount - _scratch_cycle_mount "$option" _check_s_dax $t_file 0 } do_tests() { local mount_option=$1 - local cycle_mount_option=$2 _scratch_mount "$mount_option" - test_drop_caches + test_caches - test_cycle_mount "$cycle_mount_option" + test_nocache _scratch_unmount } @@ -108,7 +92,7 @@ do_tests() _scratch_mkfs >> $seqres.full 2>&1 # Mount with dax option -do_tests "-o dax=inode" "dax=inode" +do_tests "-o dax=inode" # Mount without dax option export MOUNT_OPTIONS="" -- 2.18.1
